Protect the Plants at Democracy Prep with Harlem Grown!

July 14, 2018

10:00 AM - 02:00 PM EDT

New York City Platoon

Event overview

The Kids at Democracy Prep in Harlem need our help! The mission of Democracy Prep is to educate responsible citizen-scholars for success! They nurture children to get in the college of their choice and for a life of active citizenship. The Mission Continues with Harlem Grown will be beatifying the children's gardening and playground space with a fence. This fence will help protect the garden and plants from the rambunctious kids and help them learn by allowing for a separate space when they are in the garden. So come out and help the children of Democracy Prep Harlem with Harlem Grown beautify and improve their school! Charlie Mike!

Who We Are

The Mission Continues is a national non-profit that empowers veterans to continue serving in our nation’s under-resourced communities, giving veterans the opportunity to keep serving even after the uniform comes off, right here at home. Our programs deploy veterans and volunteers to work alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, tackle food insecurity, foster neighborhood identity, and more.  

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.

What is a Service Platoon? 

Service Platoons are your opportunity to engage and connect with veterans and community members while generating community impact in a real and tangible way. Led by veteran volunteer platoon leaders, each platoon works with dedicated community partners and volunteers to provide the manpower and support that they need to help them do their work more effectively. 

We currently have service platoons in more than 40+ cities across the country that are having events at least once a month. Everyone is invited to serve, regardless of veteran status: a service platoon is for you if you have a passion for service.
